The Meaning Of Graffiti For Peruvians

The meaning of graffiti for Peruvians

Graffiti is an artistic expression that serves as a fact for young Peruvians to make citizens. Thanks to this, this expression provides and implements an interest to understand what is happening in its city along with a criticism of society. However, it is no secret that graffiti is a subjective expression and that, unfortunately, it has been suppressed or minimized by a large part of Peruvian society, which, through its continuous explicit disagreement, violates this form of freedom of expressionFor young people who perform graffiti. However, this expression means a graphic informative route about what happens in their city, for this, they use social criticism, since the media are not accessible to people who live in constant vulnerability or poverty. With this I want to explain, that there is a continuous discrediting in Peruvian society towards graffiti as a desire that should not be part of the city and this is how the voice of these young people is prohibited practically do not be part of this place.

In the first place, in turn, since graffiti forms young people so that they can understand their city, helps to form identities and give collective awareness about what it means to be a citizen;Therefore, in the long term, coexistence between the latter would be improved. In addition, graffiti serves as a means of knowing his city, and showing himself in it. That is, through this expression a young man can be represented and consolidated as part of the city.

This cultural expression provides an identity construction in public places as a way not to promote aggression and more as a hope of being accepted by a society that rejects it. There is no idea for graffiti that it is not contributed to the city but reaffirms young people as individuals and this public space. 

Graffiti forms young people so that they can understand their city and thus improve the coexistence of citizens. For young people, graffiti would be very beneficial, because it is not only based on the fact that the work of doing so distracts them positively avoiding activities that can damage them as citizens, we must also see graffiti as an leisure activity thatImproves and promotes the identity of Peruvian young people.
